For Mount Kailash budget tour in the remote land of Tibetan Autonomous Region, (TAR) physical and mental fitness is very important. It is advisable to get a medical examination with your regular doctor before you plan to go on Mount Kailash tour. Anyone suffering from back problems may find the long drives over bumpy roads difficult. People suffering from Asthma or any kind of dust allergy are forewarned that the amount of dust on the road necessitates wearing a mask. Apart from that, it is a good idea to prepare in advance with brisk walking, and some regimen of exercise or preferably yoga asanas and pranayama. Eventually, for most people the Kailash Kora is an act of faith.

During tour in Kailash, Tibet, with the increasing altitude and decreasing oxygen level, the travelers must eat well, drink plenty of water or juices etc., take proper rest in order to get acclimatized (adjusting the body and mind with the local weather in high altitude) for a safe and comfortable journey.

Our tour leader is already going to carry abundant medicines which have been approved by the highly professional doctors from Nepal and Tibet for your safety. However we recommend that you carry a basic first aid kit with other regular medicines for cold, fever, loose motion, headache, body ache, bandage, etc. If you are taking some other medicines regularly, please carry sufficient medicine for an extended duration of your trip.

Based on the health of an individual the impact of high altitude weather may differ. It is not necessary that one will get high altitude sickness during the trip, but it is also not sure that one will not face this problem. High altitude sickness is very common while traveling to such a height in mountains and this goes away with time, depending on your own immunity and ability to overcome this situation. Acclimatize yourself properly, keep yourself hydrated during the travel, eat well, practice yoga and meditation before and during your travel to avoid or overcome the high altitude sickness. If you face high altitude sickness and need some medical help, contact your guide and follow his instructions. In a few days if the health does not improve and the guide suggest you not to go in higher altitude, you must not avoid his suggestion.

During Kailash budget tour in the event of emergency we provide all possible and available emergency evacuation facilities such as ground ambulance, helicopter ambulance, doctors, hospitalization etc. but the same is payable by the travelers only. We do not take any liability for payments of hospital bills, medicines, emergency evacuation transport, additional accommodation and food bills etc. One must carry sufficient money to overcome with such situations.

You will need to walk during the Parikarma, if you decide to undertake it. This is a 53-kms / 3 days trek done at an average altitude of 15000 ft. and the highest point is the Dolma La (Pass) at 19,500 ft. Attempt walking the entire distance including the trek up the Dolma La only if you are extremely fit physically. If you are reasonably fit and feel that you cannot walk in that high altitude you may hire a pony (subject to availability) for the 3-day Parikarma/kora. There is a facilitation counter before the trek starting point where our guide may assist you for this service.

The approximate expense for hiring a horse with a horseman is US$ 550. If you wish to hire a porter, the same is available at an additional expense of US$ 160 approx. You may need the yak on day 2 of the Parikarma on the ascent to Dolma La. But knowing the behavior of the yak and the yak men, you should be prepared for some walk on the first and last day of the Parikarma. On these 2 days the walks are in general over level ground (i.e. with no major ascents or descents). There will be a walking for approx. 6-7 hours on the first day, 8-10 hours on the second day and 2-3 hours on the third day of the kora. However, there is the option of not doing the Parikarma at all and staying behind in a hotel at Darchen at your own cost. We can pick you up from Darchen on our return journey after the Parikarma.

We highly recommend that you carry a valid travel and health insurance policy for this trip. The level of uncertainty in a trip to Kailash Mansarovar is very high even in the normal scenario. Due to several reasons, sudden changes in travel date or route, forced delays in the trip and even last minute cancellation of the trip can take place before or during the trip. Also this trip is performed in extreme inhospitable weather conditions and if any traveler has to be hospitalized due to bad health or if emergency evacuation is required, the expenditure in Tibet and Nepal can be very high.

We therefore strongly recommend that you carry a good insurance which does not only cover high altitude medical expense but also provides the facility of emergency evacuation. Also, in many cases the delay or a cancellation of a trip may bring the traveler unwanted extra expense in the shape of their flight rescheduling and/or cancellation etc., where an flight ticket insurance can be helpful to recover the non-refundable expense. Please make sure that your insurance does works all sorts of adversities, which are common in Mount Kailash Budget Trip.
